Empoli take on the visitors Cremonese in the round 15 match of Italian Serie A. The match will be played on Friday, November 11th at Stadio Carlo Castellani (Empoli).
Empoli periodically climbs into the top division of Italy. But to linger for a few years in Serie A becomes an almost impossible task for this team. And the fact that last season the newcomer scored enough points to stay in Calcio was quite a serious achievement. But it was not enough to extend the relationship with Aurelio Andreazzoli. Instead, Paolo Zanetti became the coach. Apparently, they remembered how he brought up Venice from Serie B in parallel with the Blues.. At the new place, there were few victories, but points, due to draws, were scored quite regularly. The calendar also helped here. October ended in defeats, but to Juventus and Atalanta. The new month began with the hosting of Sassuolo - and a rather unexpected, albeit minimal, victory. And after 3 days we went to Naples. It was not easy for the leader there either, but in the end it turned out to put the squeeze on the visitors. Napoli scored twice in the 2nd half, to which Empoli answered only with the sent-off of Luperto.

Cremonese missed out in Serie A for much longer. After the mid-90s of the last century, when the "gray-reds" reached their maximum, finishing even at the top of the table, there was a long decline. For more than a quarter of a century, the "tigers" could not really show anything. And only recently they got in shape, which eventually made it possible even to climb into Calcio. But here it is expectedly difficult for a beginner. It took a long time to win. The only victory came in the cup 4-2 with Modena. At the same time, the outsider managed to take points from clubs of the size of Sassuolo, Udinese and even Atalanta, playing a draw with them. In November, the wards of Massimiliano Alvini hosted Salernitana - and there it turned out to draw 2-2, thanks to a goal in the 89th minute. And on Tuesday, Milan came to them and Cremonese managed to stood their ground and earn scoreless graw.
There were 9 head-to-head matches in total, and Cremonese won only 1, and that one in the cup. Empoli, however, also have 3 wins. But in the 2020/2021 season in Serie B, the Blues took 4 points out of 6 possible. Bookmakers consider Empoli to be the favorite to play at home. But the bet on the fact that there will be “total under 3.0 goals” will be more likely to pass.
Prediction for the match: Under 3.0 scored goals.
